Died, at the residence of William W. Faison, in Duplin County, on the 11th
instant, of paralysis, Mrs. Susannah Oates, in the 77th year of her age. She

County Court Minutes, 1820-1830" compiled and edited by Oscar M. Bizzell and
Virginia L. Bizzell, her husband's brother, David Oates, was appointed
administrator of his estate (20 August 1827). David was also appointed guardian
of his brother's children (Susan Oates vs David Oates & Other Heirs at Law of
John Oates). We know that Susannah Cogdell Oates was competent, as she had a
will and her estate was settled by October 1861.
